One of my siblings is going to school once a week, I think lockdowns definitely fried some brains.

    From what I understand it is pretty typical for these kids to not know how to write their names yet. Like the curriculum is very much still “this is the color blue” “it is now nap time”. You still have to do everything for them they are basically still babies. But that wasn’t the point I was making I can see how that would be confusing because of the way I wrote it. It is not the fact that they can’t write their names that is concerning, it is the behavioral issues that are clearly present in kids this young because they are issues that are directly related to being born around the time lockdowns were occurring. I’ve written some of them out in other comments ITT.

          just badly socialised, more aggressive to unfamiliar men than usual. (not that surprising animals get more aggressive when scared and are often more likely to view men as a threat)

          bullying smaller dogs because they couldn't be socialised as puppies etc

            A lot of the same then. Some kids have fear of strangers even if it’s just a new student while others are more physically aggressive towards others and the staff. The general consensus is that this year has been the worst class the school has seen.
